People who have office jobs and express their views on hunting forums tend to have different view points than those who are trying to make a living raising critters for sale.

Please, bear with me and don't misunderstand me. Ever heard of catching 'yotes on a treble hook hung from a limb? I'm not asking how to do it, I'm just asking if you're ever heard of it. I ran across a thread in another forum and one of the guys said it's popular in Texas. I've only been here six months, so I'm still learning the culture and the ways.

I’ve heard of hooking a rabbit to call them in. I won’t say who said they e done it though

We've used cyanide guns, foot traps, and snares. 40 years ago, when our place was leased out for grazing, the leasee used hot dog pieces injected with some sort of cotton spray. I don't know how many coyotes it killed but it laid waste to just about every opposum, skunk, and coon on the place.

Until today, I'd not heard of the treble hook method. Doesn't seem much different than a snare but I see where it could harm other critters pretty easily, including cows (yes, they're that dumb).

I have never heard of it and agree that it to have too much collateral damage potential.
